The Deep Blue Sea: A Kid Lunch

I saw this idea in a magazine a while back and decided to try it out for this week's Fun Food Friday.

I'm making the Garlic-Avocado Sammies for dinner tonight, so figured I could use the spread from that as the water. I'll post the recipe next week, but it's basically cream cheese and avocado. I put a drop of blue food coloring in a small amount of it to do the lunch.

The base is a rice cake. A bagel or any sort of bread would work. I'm sure you all know what the fishy crackers are. The rest is just stuff I dug out of the fridge and yard. Broccoli, cherry tomatoes, garlic chives, basil, and cucumber.

My Story

At the most recent head count, my house consisted of The Mom (that would be me), The Dad, The Kid, The Girl, Baby, The Dog (in spirit), The Cat and The Tortoise. I am completely obsessed with gardening, cooking and cheese. If I was a superhero, my name would be The Rearranger. Saving the world, one knick knack at a time. I'm a 39-year-old SAHM with a stockpile of photos and a head full of ideas, ahem, ramblings. Welcome to my life.
